Very helpful.  Thank you.

Hi again all,

Re: Jane Dayus (1826-1912) - her common-law-husband, Charles Dayres, b. about 1824, Shropshire (guess) last name?  Also, a second possible John Dayns as well.

Updated tree on Jane's parental related info. from this thread - so thankful. 

Now I need to research Jane's common-law-husbands, Charles (and John).  There is no marriage information, or a father listed on birth certificates for her five children.

However, four of the children married (including Louisa Dayres mmn 1848-1922, my ancestor). 

Is anyone able to access the marriage certificates to see if anyone listed a father?
(As I write this, oh my gosh, I now see one of the Ancestry entries says John Dayns (Jane's mmn though, variant spelling). 

1. Louisa Dayus (mmn) (1848-1922) = Thomas Morris (mine). Just seen a possible father as Charles Dayns (Jane/partner's mn)?

2. Thomas Dayus  (mmn) (b.1852) = Emily Suter 1876 Wolverhampton.

3. Charlotte Dayus (mmn) (b.1854) = William Bridges (father listed as John Dayns), October 22, 1889 Taseley, Shropshire.
...
4. Ann Dayus (mmn) (b.1859)  = William Eyke, June 12, 1886 Bridgnorth.

Maybe I answered my own question, but just in case anyone can see anything about John, his last name?, I post this post.
Best wishes,

It is entirely possible every child had a different father.
As none have a father named at baptism you cannot be sure that if they did name a father at marriage, that they didn’t make it up. Especially if they give him the surname Dayus.
I think if jane had a man living in for a few years the baptism would have some mention of him.

As my father would have said “He kept his hat on”.

PS…you’ve put 19 instead of 18 in those birth years.

Corrected birth entries from 1900s. Thxs.

Re: John, Blacksmith - helpful, thank you!

Need an occupation for Charles if possible:

Louisa Dayus (1848) = Thomas Morris, (1875, Bridgnorth) - father: Charles Dayres.  Occupation?


Also, here is more information for Ann's marriage - it's William's second marriage:

Ann Dayus (Dayas) (1859) = William Eyke (1886 (April, May, June), St Leonard, Bridgnorth) - father: ? 

Thank you.

Re: Charles Morris, b. 1826, Shropshire.


Charles Morris b. 1826, Shropshire, on the 1841 census in Chelmarsh, with Thomas Morris, b. 1816 Shropshire (town not specified), Mason. 

Is anyone able to find any family for these two?    I'm assuming they are brothers at the moment. 

This is in connection to finding the (first) common-law-husband of Jane Dayus (3x gg), father of Louisa Morris (Dayus, mmn) (2x gg).

1841, in Chelmarsh.
Jane Dayus (1826-1912), 25
Louisa Morris (Dayus, mmn) 1848-1922, 2
Ann Dayus (Clee) (1877-1957), 60s
Eliza Dayus (mmn) b.1932, 9, Ann's grandaughter, of Sarah Dayus (Gorton) b. 1801.

Possibly, coincidently, Louisa eventually married Thomas Morris (1852-1921), Worfield, Shropshire, parents: John Morris/Elizabeth Barker.   

Louisa Dayus/Thomas Morris marriage:1875, Bridgnorth (see above replies), living in Quatford at that time.  Louisa lists her father as Charles Dayns (mmn, various spellings), Stone Mason (see above replies).

As always, thoughts are appreciated.
